Genetic Testing

The CAN Clinic strongly recommends that all individuals with a suspected developmental delay or ASD obtain genetic consultation and testing. The American College of Medical Genetics indicates that it is medically necessary and standard practice for individuals with an ASD and/or cognitive delays to undergo genetic testing. Genetic counseling and testing at UCLA may be scheduled through the UCLA Pediatric Genetics Clinic.
